Comprehensive Protection

Automatic overload

The XPower Powerpack has built-in protection against output overload. If you connect an appliance to the AC Outlet that draws more than 250 watts, or one which draws excessive surge power, the power to the AC Outlet automatically shuts off.

Overheating

The XPower Powerpack is protected from overheating. If the inverter exceeds a safe temperature, power to the AC Outlet automatically shuts off.

Low Battery Protection

Low battery protection protects the internal battery from excessive discharge and possible damage. When the AC Outlet On/Off switch is turned on, an audible alarm alerts you when the internal battery is nearly discharged (10.7 volts DC) and the unit turns off at 10.0 volts DC.

Jump-start Cables Safety Feature and Reverse Polarity Detection

The XPower Powerpack has a special jump-start safety feature that eliminates the sparking that sometimes occurs when the jump-start cables are connected to a battery. The XPower Powerpack can also detect a reverse polarity connection and notifies you with an audible alarm and a Battery Clips Connected Improperly (red light).

The battery to be jump-started must have a terminal voltage of at least 4 volts in order to work with the XPower Powerpack.
